Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is still a global health problem due to the ease of transmission of this disease. Everybody can prevent this transmission if TB patients are treated thoroughly and do not have direct contact with healthy people without using personal protective equipment. Nusa Tenggara adheres to high cultural values and family values. These factors can be things that support prevention efforts as well as increase the occurrence of transmission. The study aimed to determine the cultural factors and family behavior to prevent the transmission of pulmonary TB disease in Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The method used is a literature review. The articles used as literature review materials come from Google Scholar. The articles were selected based on the research focus, namely TB transmission in the family, family behavior in TB prevention, and TB prevention health promotion. The articles are then analyzed using PICO and Prisma chart. There were 11 articles analyzed with the results obtained on two themes, namely cultural factors and family behavior, where the level of knowledge influences cultural factors and family behavior.
